TAMS Banquet plans take shape

The Token and Medal Society voted at its board meeting last year to move its board meeting, general meeting and the TAMS banquet to Wednesday, Aug. 8, 2012, in Philadelphia at the American Numismatic Association’s World’s Fair of Money show. In prior years, the dinner was on Thursday night.

It is true, United States tokens prove big things do come in small packages!

The board meeting is set for 9 a.m., the general membership meeting will commence at 1 p.m. with guest speaker David Alexander and the TAMS Banquet will be held at 6:30 p.m.

The banquet location is the Philadelphia Marriott Downtown at 1201 Market Street in the restaurant’s private dining room. Entry to the dinner will begin at 6 p.m. Cost is $45, which will include the meal, dessert, non-alcoholic beverages, tax and tip.

To RSVP for the event, contact Kathy Freeland, TAMS secretary, by phone at (989) 843-5247, or by email at ksfdaf@sbcglobal.net.
